This article considers the theoretical basis of the feminist movement in Bangladesh using the Pornography Control Act, 2012 as its central focus. It examines the dominating in- fluence of liberal feminism over the women's movement and how its failure to appreciate and utilise insights from other feminist approaches such as radical feminism has rendered it unable to conceptualise and deal with the issues surrounding pornography and prosti- tution. It considers how the Pornography Control Act which was intended primarily to criminalise revenge porn has been thwarted in its goals by the liberal approach of the leg- islature. The article also examines how third-wave feminist approaches towards pornog- raphy and prostitution, although favoured by some activists in Bangladesh is unlikely to gain much traction because of the restrictions contained in the Bangladesh Constitution.
